Look Who's Coming to LabourStart Toronto! r1 ...
500+ trade unionists from 30+ countries around the world are registered to attend.

We have a pretty exciting programme if I do say so myself. We’re still adding workshops but have about 50 set at this point.

Presenters include:
  • the General-Secretary of a union in El Salvador that is campaigning against gender discrimination and violence, including femicide.
  • Amnesty International’s (UK) labour rights campaigner. Nobody campaigns for human rights like Amnesty.
  • the labour advisor to the Bernie Sanders US presidential campaign.
  • an Afghan trade union leader speaking on the state of the labour movement there.
  • sex workers organizers on the global struggle for basic labour rights in that industry.
  • German and Italian trade unionists on the labour movement's response to the refugee crisis in Europe.
  • LabourStart's own Eric Lee on how your union can use us in your own struggles.
And many more.

To see the entire conference programme and to register just visit the conference blog right HERE.

Finally, thanks to everyone who contacted us after LabourStart won the Svensson Prize and a SMK Campaigner Award. It was a big week for all of us at LabourStart but the feedback from you folks was even more encouraging than the prizes themselves.

So thanks. And since this wouldn't be a message from LabourStart if we didn't flog a campaign or two, don't forget to click on the link below and join one (or all) of our active campaigns.

In Solidarity,
